NYC Mayor Signs Gender-Neutral Bathroom Law

New York New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio signed legislation yesterday that requires all single-occupancy bathrooms to be available for all genders, the Wall Street Journal reports.

The mayor, entering into a national debate on bathroom usage, said businesses citywide will have to post signs on every single-occupancy bathroom stating the new rules. The signs must be up by Jan. 1, though the rules take effect four months from now.

“With this bill, we take yet another step toward becoming a place where all can live with dignity, free from fear and free from judgment,” Mr. de Blasio, a Democrat, said in a statement.

Chazal tell us (Shabbos 54b) that those who could be “mocheh” (lit.
protest) against wrongdoers of their city/country/world are held accountable for
their aveiros;…
against the wrongdoers throughout the world are held accountable for
*their* sins.

Additionally, unlike other anti-Torah policies, this particular class of aveiros is being promoted as an ideal to be celebrated, not

merely a “right” entitled to protection. Furthermore, government recognizing these “relationships” in any way – including same-gender-
couple adoption – is not only permitting such conduct – it’s providing a State-haskomo (approbation) to this aveirah.

Does this mean that all public bathrooms with multiple stalls most do not have partitions that reach ceiling to floor and share one public entrance or only completely separate, completely enclosed individual units?
